Spring break is just a couple of weeks away, and that means it’s time to start thinking about the perfect outfits! Although it seems like the polar vortex is never-ending, the light at the end of the tunnel is near for those of you going somewhere warm (hopefully everyone)! Luckily for us, the fashion world changes a lot faster than the weather, so even though it is still about 0 degrees in Ann Arbor, there are plenty of warm weather clothes being sold. I’ve compiled a list of the 5 most important items to bring on your spring break vacation!
